The Stick Posted April 3, 2023 Report Share Posted April 3, 2023 I was rereading mistborn and realized that we have no idea how reliable Alendi's logbook is. It is simple paper, so Ruin easily could have changed it to make giving up the power seem right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is heavily implied by book 3 (Hero of Ages) that the Logbook was manipulated in a way similar to the prophecy of the Hero of Ages and Kwaan's Confession. Broad strokes should be mostly accurate, details and word choice changed to influence the reader in Ruin's favor. (For example: Epigraph to Ch 33 - It's unlikely that the "Mist Spirit" attacked Fedik, and more likely Ruin wanted anybody reading the logbook to mistrust the way Preservation would appear to them - unless of course that one was Ruin pretending to be the Mist Spirit as it did in Elend's Tent) Edited April 3, 2023 by Treamayne SPAG 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
